r Speaking i of Sports Nechan Deardorian, the New Brit- ain boy whe with Fred Zehrer, s playing strong football in the line of | 3% the Frapklin & Marshall university freshman team, s also his class pop- resentative in an inter-class man and sephomore wrestling cen- | XV tost. The contests started off with a large group but Feardorian bhas worked his way into the finals, He plays at left guard position. on the football squad and Fred Zeohrer i3 stationed at right end. The Franklin & Marshall varsity team plays the freshmen twice a week and the first year team wins every time by overwhelming scores. Deardorian was & member of the 192¢ state championship football team which was considered one of the greatest high school teams in the past decade. Fellows members of that team were “Red”: Miller, Howard Beloin, Al Politis, Ben Boj- nowaki, McCarthy, Ernest Neipp, John Grip, Hetry Zehrer, Pat O'Brien, and Howard Belser. The greater number of these boys were given chances in coliéges and Bbave made names for themselves. “Jmbo” Gnasdow, the New Brit- ain Nutmeg's strong boy, is as hard & worker in the brick yards as he §s on the foothall field. Plans are underway to have the opecinl excursion train to New York stop at Berlin to pick up the fans who wish to follow the New Britain team to Stapleton a week from Sun- day. Approximately 300 followed the team last year. The Stapleton team is considered one of the best professipiial teams outside of organized league. Its quarterback is Jack Connors, quai- terback of New York university team last year, and a member of one of the three offictal All-Ameri- can teams which were picked by Grantland Rice and aports writers. ‘The New Haven Hillhouse High school team with three veterans left from last year will face Hartford Public High school in New Haven this afternoon in the first game of the triangular league for the Wil- llam F. Fleischer cup which was not won last year. Last year it appeared as if either New Haven or Hartford would win the cup after each had defeated New Britain, but they tied 6 to 6 and under the rules the cup holds over for another year in case of a tie, New Haven team has not been de- feated in three starts, but Hartford was defeated by the Central High school team eof Bridgeport. Many of the boxing gentry will find their way to Hartford tomorrow night where they will see two New Britain boys in action, Joe Zotter in the semi-final and Kid Thomas in a preliminary bout. Bat Battalino, hard-hitting featherweight, will be on the card in the main go of the night, & Industrial league fams arc in for & lot of basketball this winter. Two nights a week and three games & night will be something for the of- ficlals to look forward fo with fear. It will be a tired referee who will drag himself off the floag after these games. 1 After- two years on the ineligible aquad, “Shorty” Crawford has risen to show the Harvard varsity how to stop Dartmouth's plays. Crawford yesterday was put at quarterback for the regulars against his fqormer tsammates and directed the most successful defensive practice of the week. He probably will start the game Saturday. In spite of the resounding moans that have been comfng from West Point all week about the injuties that have weakened the Army squad, the team looked pretty good in prac- tice yesterday. Chris Cagle was the shining light on the offensive and the men who were supposed to be doddering around the field on crutches looked like a snappy bunch of players teo. Navy and Pennsylvania reversed their positions yesterday. Penn. which has had few sorrows, discov- ered that Ralph Monk, star guard, will be out on another game while the Navy men learned that Oscar Habgerg, end, who was taught to have broken a leg in Wednesday's practice, had suffered only a severe wprain, % Mal Stevens of Yale, like most ‘coaches, believes that the team best drilled in the fundamentals of foot- ball is the one that wins a close game. He is taking no chances on losing to Army because of a failure In that kind of training. A second hard practice yesterday was devoted te the simplest parts of the game. It Hugo Bezdek doesn’t find =& winning combination at Penn State it won't be because he hasn't tried them all. His tentative starting line- up for the 8yracuse encounter.is the fifth in as many games. It includes seven pophomores and four juniors. The Veterans will be occupying the beJeh when the whistle blows. Phil' Liflander, Columbia’s 152 pound quarterback, will enjoy a new experience tomorrow. After two years as a substitute he will start his first game against Whliams. In the eyes of the public the Army-Yale game is the big show of the week. Every seat in the Yale bowl has been sold without opening the lists to the general public, and the Yale Athletic association has had the sad task of returning $58.- 000 to applicants who could not get seats. i West Virginia' hard luck all seems to strike in one spot. Eddie Stumpp, star back, did not go to Easton to play against Lafayette be- cause of the dislocated knee and now his subatitute, Rus La Rue, may be kept out with beils and an in. fected toe.

BURRITT 4.G.T0 ORGANIZE AGAIN Fast Stepping Basketball Outtit Will Be Seen on Floor Plans are being made by the Bur- ritt A. C. for the re-organization of the basketball team for the coming season. The Burritts have experi- enced three successful years in a row and expect to have the strongest team in ita existence on the floor this year. 8inge its organization the Bueritt five has won.over 60 games, capturing the junior state cham- plonship two years ago. The team was handicapped last year by the lack of a home floor. Kenneth J. Saunders will again manage the Burritts and announces that the team will be dotted with weN known stars, Some of the play- crs who are expected to appear with the Polish aggregation are: forwards Hgvlick, Jacobowitz, Mjeckowski and Belser; centers, Fred Saunders and Luty; guards, Darrow, Arbour, McGrath, Adams and a few others. The officials of the Burritts and the manager will hold a meeting with President Kenney of the T. A. B. society Monday evening in re- gards to securing the Tabs' hall for the coming season. If agreeable terms can be reacked the Burritts will play one home game each week against the best teama in the state in the junior ranks. The Phantoms, last year's city champs, will prob. ably play preliminary games to the Burritte. Further annbuncements will be made later. If the Burritts secure the floor, the team will be outfitted in new uniforms as will the Phantoms. French Tennis Tax May Be Lifted Shortly Paris, Oct. 26 (UP)—Although all open tennis tournaments glong the Riviera have been suspended until March, 1929, because of the excess tax placed on such events, the secre- tary of the French Lawn Tennis As- sociation said today he expected the tax to be eliminated before Decem- ber and the tournaments held as in the past. 8 The new tax is levied on all tour- naments except these in which only members of the private clubs parti- cipate. The interpretation of open tournament along the Riviera is not one for amateurs and professionals, but one in which players from many countries compete. “All the open tournaments afe off until the order is changed,” the secretary said, “but we wouldn’t be surprised to see an amendment to the tax bill presented to the cham- ber eliminating the tennis tax before December.” Bandits Rob Golf Association Head Chicago, Oct. 26 UM—Holdup men robbed Melvin A. Tiaytor, president of the/United States uJolf association and the First National bank of Chi- cago, and John F. Hagey, the bank's first vice president, and tneir wives last night. Four armed men accosted the party as they drove up to the Ha- gey home. A diamond ring valued at $1,500 was taken from Mrs. Ha- gey. while Mr. Hagey lost $40 in cash and Mr. Traylor $25. “This is a r-lite holdup, folks™ one of the robbers said. *“Keep cool and don’t make a disturbance. You needn’t even raise your hands —there’s no use advertising this is a holdup.” KINGSFORD-SMITH DIVORCED Sydney, New South Wales, Oct. 26 UPM—Captain Charles Kingsford- 8mith, commander of tne plane Southern Croes on its recent traps- pacific flight, today wea' granted a divorce on the grounds of desertion.

The “pros” are about to set out on a winding trail, leading west and then south, to shoot for the big prizes waiting. The first of the winter tourna- ments is the Oklahoma city open November 2-4 with the Oregon open on its heels and a dozen worth while events to follow in California, When the crack golfers have made new records for courses or themselves on the Pacific coast they will adjourn to Florida with side excursions into Arkansas, and Texas on the way south, After Florida comes Pinehurst and by that time the personnel of the Ryder cup team will have been decided and members of this all-star group will set their faces toward England to defend the trophy em- blematic of the professional cham- pionship of the two countries. While the team is abroad the British open will be staged with all the invad. ing pros trying their luck in this blue ribbon event. Walter Hagen, the British eham- pion, will, of course. play a defend- ing role and Johnny Farrell, the open champion of the United States wil be there, as aJso will Leo Diegel. P. G. A, champion.

The® Jeading proe and amateurs will congregate at the Winged Fest club, Mamaroneck, N.

Raillway fare and hotel bills go o whether the players win, lose or draw, and strokes are trauslated inte terms of dollars at every turn. One shot may mean the difference be. tween $1,500 and $300 and another betweén $100 or nothing. Dave Spittal, a picturesque pro, sized up the situation in a southern tournament ence when he came in with & 73 hole acore of 300, “Will it be in the money?” he asked observers at the eighteenth green, He was assured that the best judgment of the assembled experts was that it would. “Think it'll be car fare? was his mext question. The audience did some figuring after consulting the score board and ventured an opinion that his acore would get him just about the amount he spent to get to the tour- nament from his club, and back again. “Fair enough,” said Dave. “Thrt's better than nothing. and there's al- ways another one where you may get more. An even brecak would be better, but I guess I'l have to pay the hotel bill and caddy fee and hope for better luck next time.” Another pro at a “big money” tournament had so little faith in his acore that as he gave his caddy $20 after his last round, he told the bag carrler, “I hope that's enough It's more than I'll get for playing.” Wesleyan Puts Four Now Teams on Its | Middietown, Conn., O Four new teams appear on leyan university baskethall schedule just announced.
